Finally, C-4 Thursdays have arrived! Yes...without any meaningful baseball for the next five months, the SoSG staff is re-channeling their competitive juices by hereby throwing down the gauntlet to their readership in a no-holds barred game of Connect Four. Here's how it works:

For those unfamiliar with Connect Four, the game is played by having the two adversaries take turns dropping a colored piece into one of seven columns. The piece will drop to the bottom and fill the lowest-available cell in its column. Whoever is able to align four of their pieces in a row - horizontally, vertically, or diagonally - wins.

The SoSG Writers, with the black pieces, have made the first move, as indicated in the game board below. The SoSG Readers, with the red pieces, must now make their move by way of the poll.

Does someone have a Connect 4 game sitting on their desk right now? To make this game even more exciting, you should shoot a new 10 second video every week of the Readers move and Writers move and post it on here.
